Ch 21 - The Dead Realm (4)

-Liz's POV-

"Hey, why'd you say that you'll kill them if they backed out on the condition, don’t we want to guilt trip them?" Reinard asked me as we got outside of the tent.

"We can't guilt trip them. All of them are stubborn people and they'll only find reasons to not be guilt tripped, so threatening them was the only choice." I said and both of us took to the sky and headed towards the battlefield. Floating in the sky and observing the battlefield, Vorgrim teleported near us.

"So, why'd you call me?" Vorgrim asked.

"You can see their levels right?, so tell us." Reinard said.

"Yeah sure, they are around late 200's to early 300's. The highest one is at level 400. That one might break into Tier 3." Vorgrim said as he spread his aura to sense the general level of the invaders.

"How do you compare them to yourself? Are they a threat or not?" I asked Vorgrim but he just gave me a look that said 'Are you dumb?'.

"I know it's a dumb question but answer it."

"They are like ants. I could crush them for you if you want." Vorgrim said as he took a look at the battlefield below us.

"Good. Let the people retreat, after that I'll use my spell." I said and the three of us kept floating in the air for about ten minutes.

We could see a lot of people retreating from the frontlines confusing the invaders. Thinking that the people of this world might be planning something, the invader's commander issued an order to retreat too. Everyone was retreating back to their bases. The invader's assumptions were not founded at all but this situation was helpful to us. We could deal with all of them in one spell.

The three of us flew close to the battleship, the moment we got close. All sorts of beams and spells started raining down on us. I created a golden barrier using a spell of my own. This barrier was indestructible, it could even withstand a full powered punch from Reinard and having known that Vorgrim was a lot higher level than these invaders and he couldn't even manage to leave a scratch on me. My confidence in helping the people of this world and acquiring the technology of the invaders was high.

Looking at the beams and spells raining on us. I wanted to end all of this with one single spell.

Every person on the battleship and on the battlefield had a soul, there is nothing in this universe that could survive without having a soul. The soul is the most important thing connecting people to reality. So I decided to use one of my most destructive spells, The Soul Disintegration spell "Starfire Flux". This spell disintegrates the soul from within and doesn't leave anything behind, burning every part of the soul with the heat of a supernova. Making the target of this spell wish for instant death rather than the horrifying pain.

"Decrusto, Una scar" as I said these words, bodies fell and all the invaders died. I didn't doubt that my spell would not work on them because I had used this same spell to kill a dragon. A dragon's soul is a lot stronger than the soul of a human, so there was no chance for them to survive this. The only thing that remained was the eerie humming of the battleship.

There was no need for the people of this world to retreat but, it was better to be safe than accidentally killing them with my spell.

"Honey, I think you overdid it. There was no need to use Starfire Flux. Now you've traumatized your own soon to be army." Reinard said to me while looking at the faces of the remaining people.

"Master, what was that spell?" Vorgrim asked me.

"Yeah I know I overdid it but, our date is more important and I don't wanna delay our first date after remembering the past." I said to Reinard and ignored Vorgrim's question.

"Alright, how about we go and talk to those lords so that we can leave early to have our first date in centuries." Reinard said and the three of us flew back towards the tent under the terrified eyes of my soon to be army.

-Ren's POV-

"What just happened?" Celeas asked. All of us looked at the invaders who had just managed to retreat and started falling on the ground one by one.

“Are you all seeing what I am seeing?” Lyra asked but no one replied. The five people standing right outside the tent were stunned beyond belief. How could one person take down 500 million people? It was unbelievable. All of us had seen Lizandra say something and the invaders just fell down.

I was scared for the first time in my life. Even the invaders hadn’t managed to scare me to the level that Lizandra woman did today. A few minutes later, three people teleported right in front of us, it was Lizandra, Reinard and another handsome looking man, with blue hair, golden slit eyes.

“It’s done. Now how about we get to your end of the deal?” Lizandra spoke while Reinard and the blue haired man stood behind her.

“Miss Lizandra, I know that we had the deal but there is still a flying sword in the sky, it has at least the same amount of invaders or more. You’ll have to take care of it too, you know.” Lyra spoke.

“It’s already done, you don’t need to worry about the invaders anymore. Let’s just get to your part of the deal, I have an important meeting to attend.” Lizandra said and told something to the blue haired man, which we couldn’t hear. The next moment, he disappeared from our sights, we looked all around us until we spotted him near the flying sword. A few seconds later, he waved his hand and the entire sword disappeared.

I looked at the other four lords and we all had the same expression and thought going through our heads. ‘These guys are beyond our understanding’.

“Miss Lizandra, how about we sit down and negotiate our deal.” Oltion spoke and led us all inside the tent. We all sat down on the chairs as Oltion summoned steaming hot tea cups on the table.

“So what is it that you want to negotiate on?” Reinard said instead of Lizandra. We didn’t expect that a subordinate of Lizandra would speak to us during the negotiations but, seeing the power that wiped out at least a billion invaders, we stopped the question from coming out of our mouths and got to the point.

“Can you tell us how you managed to kill all those invaders?” Lyra spoke before any of us could say our point.

“I used a spell.” Lizandra spoke and didn’t explain what spell, how did it even work, or anything related to it.

“Anything else you wanna know?” Reinard asked.

“Yes, we have a lot of questions.” Aithra said.

“Darling, we don’t have that much spare time to answer their questions, just let Vorgrim handle their questions. We have to talk about the negotiation before we leave.” Lizandra said to Reinard and when I heard her say ‘Darling’, I knew that I had no chance at all.

“Okay honey. You heard her, let’s talk about negotiations.” Reinard said.

“Fine. Can you guarantee that my people would be safe in your hands?” Oltion said.

-Liz’s POV-

I sat in a chair and looked on as Reinard and Oltion discussed the deal. Oltion wanted to guarantee his people’s safety first and foremost but, the war coming to my world was not gonna be simple in any way. Reinard explained to him a bit about our situation, the others had some arguments but eventually they agreed to help. They didn’t have a choice, they saw what my spell did to the invaders. I could see the fear instilled in their eyes. The negotiation went on for an hour and ended with the conclusion of my side providing Oltion’s with food and shelter and in return they would become my swords. This was a hard decision for them but then again, they had to make a choice, because the invasion won’t stop with only one, there would be more coming to their realm, either to destroy it or to take over. So their best choice was to get to a world that wasn’t invaded and had a few years before the invasion even started.

“Miss Lizandra, how are you going to transport our people to your world?” Aithra asked.

“I have a dimensional space where living beings can live and there’s a lot of space for them to live freely inside the dimensional space. I’ll be transporting everyone through it and keeping them there for a few days until I get them a permanent place to stay and as Reinard explained he’ll be making them stronger than before.” I said.

“Then I guess we’ll also have to stay in that dimensional space right?” Celeas asked.

“No you don’t have to. If you want you can stay with Vorgrim and get the details of my world from him.”

All the people present shook hands with me to seal the deal. I had used a spell to make a pact with them, although it wasn’t a harsh one, it was for the peace of my mind. I wasn’t going to let people betray me and go unscathed. All of us went outside the tent and looked at the people, who were kneeling on the ground.

“I know this might sound a lot for you all but know that this is for the good of us. The three people standing beside us are the saviors of our realm. They had helped us when we needed it the most and just like us their world is about to face the same threat. I know that this war has cost us all but, are we so dishonorable that we will not even help the people who help us in our needs.”

“No” A collective answer could be heard.

“Right, as our realm is already on the verge of destruction, these people here have promised us to provide food and shelter and asked us to help them when the need arises. Do you agree to help them?”

“We do” another collective answer could be heard. The people of this realm had blind faith in their leaders because they had never betrayed their expectations and the speech that Lyra gave had helped them to find new purpose even though that purpose was to become an army of their savior.

-A Few Hours Later-

All of us were back in New York and Vorgrim was with the five lords, teaching them about the world and also learning for himself as well. It didn’t take a lot of time for me to move the people to my dimensional space. They didn’t have many belongings to take with them except for the ones who had, they were already carrying them.

“So Honey, how do I look?” Reinard asked, showing me his burgundy suit, neatly combed hair.

“Maybe I should lock you up in here, so that I would not get jealous of other women looking at what’s mine.” I hugged him and gave him a possessive look ‘This man right here was mine and I would not let any woman near him’.

“That might really be a good idea.” Reinard said while laughing.

“Anyways, do I look good?” I asked him and the only thing I got in reply was a passionate kiss that lasted for a few minutes.

“Yes you do. We should go now.” Reinard said after leaving my lips and letting me catch some breath.

“Hey !! My lipstick got smudged.” I hit him on the chest while saying that.

-10 Minutes Later-

The both of us we were on our way to a famous restaurant for our date. But fate had different plans, which may lead one of the top most guild leader’s death to come for him more earlier than he imagined.
